4 Types of Services Included in FEA Solution Analysis You Need to Know

FEA (Finite Element Analysis) is a computerized method of predicting how a product reacts to real world forces, vibration, heat, fluid flow, and other physical effects. Since the majority of industrial components are made of metal, most of the FEA solution analysis involves metallic components. The analysis of metal components can be carried out by either linear or non-linear stress analysis depending upon how far you can push the design.
 
Field Element Analysis includes different services. Some of them are listed below:

1. Static and Dynamic loads:                                                                                                                                Truck chassis is a major component in a vehicle. Many failures can occur in it due to static and dynamic loading conditions. In this type, static and dynamic load characteristics are analyzed using FE models. It is found that analyzing high-stress area, analyzing vibration, natural frequency, and mode shape by suing Finite Element model. Finally, the modifications of the updated FE truck chassis model will be proposed to reduce the vibration, improve the strength and optimize the weight of the truck chassis.

2. Collapse Analysis:                                                          

 The term collapse is often used to refer to the sudden loss of the structural integrity and can be due to material failure or loss of structural stiffness within the elastic limit of the material. It can be the result of plasticity in metallic structures, which is the major reason of failure in brittle materials.                                                                  

3. Buckling Analysis:                                                           

Buckling refers to the loss of stability of a structure. In its simplest form, it is independent of material strength where it is assumed that the loss of stability occurs within the elastic range of the material. It is primarily characterized by loss of structural stiffness and cannot be modeled using basic linear finite element analysis.

4. Fatigue:                                                                         

Fatigue is cited as the most common type of failure in structures. It occurs at relatively low stresses, below the critical static value. A fatigue failure is an indication that crack will start. FEA is carried out to find local regions of high stress under operating conditions. 

The traditional method of analysis was done by deriving differential equations. However, solving these mathematical equations is often impossible. So, Finite Element Analysis was introduced. In the future, FEA Solution Analysis tools will establish themselves as important instruments in the design and production of innovative, high efficient and more reliable products.
